Windows
Lewin aluminium windows were the preferred choice...
(9/17/02) LK/BB met with BW/LW: installation should not cause an enormous mess within each unit; based on meeting Trustees decided to select 8000 series windows with ultra lift balances only on the bottom sashes with full screens and a colonial profile panning which
